Corpora cavernosa still in place after implant

[tooyoung]

Cause the surgeon creates the space for the cylinders, for this he removes the tissue and when the cylinders fit exactly into the capsula cavernosa, there is no reason to leave the not intact corpora cavernosa inside.

I'm really confused when you said complete BS was that for me or the technique ?

For the technique, there is no reason to leave corpora cavernosa, which doesn't function, behind.

I owe you an apology. I thought you were saying my remark is bullshit because "complete bs" was a reply to my statement not the OP's. Again I'm sorry man...please accept.

All good!

Dr Eid mentioned that when he places the cylinders he tries to do it in a way that preserves as much function as possible.

I still get morning wood. I still get engorgement when I get turned on. Not just the center tissue around the urethra and the glans either, but I get engoregement of the main part of the shaft as well.

When I pump my implant up it seems like some of that blood flow gets squeezed out.

I have no opinion about the article/study. Just sharing my experience.

The technique described seems to be only for malleable implants, which makes sense because they don't have to expand.

There are erectile tissues around the big cylinders (outside the tunica)...and yes you might be having some surviving sinusoids within the corporal bodies..that's good and possible but this shouldn't compromise adequate dilatation..and it varies from person to person as well.

Ipp theoritically saves cavernous tissue better than a mpp..but some folks here with mpp say they still feel morning wood and engorgement..while others with ipp feel cold and vice versa...anyways residual sinusoidal tissue is soon to be gone (could take few years) via pressure atrophy by mpp compression or ipp's bigger compression when inflated. Even chronic ischemia on those tissues will do its' work (cavernosal arteries are completely cut).

Arthur burnett (2nd link) is a big time professor in the field whose work is mainly ipps and he didn't bring up that ipps are any better in that matter...he just completely refuted the idea of "preserving cavernous tissue" as a whole so it isn't a malleable only thing.

With or Without Cavernosal Removal?

The corpora cavernosa (erectile chambers) are typically not removed during a standard penile implant procedure. Instead, the implant is placed inside the cavernosal spaces after they are surgically dilated.

However, in rare cases, partial or complete cavernosal removal may be considered if there is:

Severe fibrosis (Peyronie’s disease, priapism damage)
Infections or erosion requiring tissue excision
Tumor resection (e.g., penile cancer)
Types of Penile Implants

Inflatable Implants (Two- or Three-Piece)
Most common, provides a natural erection.
Fluid-filled cylinders expand when pumped.
Malleable (Semi-Rigid) Implants
Always firm but can be bent into position.
Key Considerations

Without cavernosal removal: Standard approach, better erectile function.
With cavernosal removal: Rare, may require complex reconstruction (e.g., grafting).

that means Dr. Eid and most surgeons which use this technique are doing the right thing.

Is that an AI answer ?..

Yeah Arthur burnett, David ralph and all attendees in that conference can eat shit. Have you watched a penile implant surgery before ?...If you ever found a video where the surgeon is preserving cavernous tissue please send it.

[richard_goes_bionic]

yes it is AI too young, but shouldn't Dr. Eid know what he is doing.
Isn't the cavernosa like a sponge and you can dilate it to make room for the implant, maybe you remove some of it?

Yes it's strange I agree..when Zaazaa's article came out it was a hype and surgeons were genuinely interested in the concept...time goes by and some of em started to realise it's horse shit and stopped mentioning it even though they had earlier and some of those even started to refute it publicly while the others continued mentioning it as they find it comforting to the patient either out of empathy for the depressed/anxious patient or a way to attract more customers than the more "honest" surgeons....anyway they will all do the same exact steps as written in wilson's book.

I would like to stress that Zaazaa is a coloplast center of excellence and he does train surgeons internationally.

He is the one who puts pulse oximeter on the glans of penis during surgery...the one who Eid followed at some point.

So the lovely world of "he knows best" , "trust your surgeon" and "get yourself a world class clown" should come to an end.

I'm not saying we ultimately distrust them but we need to be more critical as implant business got alot of horse shit...product is shaped by the audience not by the seller.
